Season 2 is Here! Finally! This season is all about the Historical Jesus! Join me with my new co-host, Jonathan Martin, as we look that the evidence for believing Jesus was a real-life person and we dive into the history and culture of Jesus.In this episode, Jonathon & Vinnie look that the evidence for believing Jesus was a real-life person. Can his existence be verified in history, even apart from the Bible? Secondly, we explain and explore why it is important to understand the richness of the culture and the world Jesus grew up in.FULL SHOWNOTES @ www.SimplyVinnie.com/The_Real_JesusWhile season 1 is still in the archives, for those who want to review it, each season of this podcast is a little be different than the last. Last season I (Pastor Vinnie) focused on mostly stand-alone topics. I had occasional guests yet, I was the main presenter. This season we are changing things up. Our focus for this full season is the historical Jesus; including his culture, people, political situation, and geographical footprint.
